Rollin' down out of the hills and hollows of Humboldt County, CA. comes a group of friends on a mission to save country music from itself.

In our lifetime, we've noticed the steady deterioration of the music that told the stories and hardships of our everyday lives. What happened to songs that meant something and actually provoked emotions we've all felt at one time or another?

Todays' Country music is a corporate glamor show that falls in with the ranks of Barbie, and Britney Spears. Country music no longer wants to be your kin, your neighbor or your drinkin' buddy like it has been for over 75 years, it wants your money. It has turned it's back on the people that made it.

Seek out and support the folks that are trying to keep it real. The old guys, the new guys, the songs you hear that make you say," I'd invite 'em over for dinner." or "I'd have a drink with 'em down at the bar." These are the folks that sang your dad's, your grandpa's and maybe even your great grandpa's songs.

There's a reason we all still pull out those old albums when it's rainin' or when we're gonna play a round of poker over a couple of beers. It's our roots. GET YOUR SONG BACK!
